About us
Hoare Lea is a human-centric and planet-conscious engineering consultancy. We offer intelligent and sustainable solutions to complex design challenges for the built environment throughout the UK and further afield.
We provide a wide range of engineering and consultancy services, including acoustics, air quality, building services (MEP), fire, lighting, security and sustainability to name but a few. Together, our highly skilled teams use technical expertise and problem-solving skills to bring buildings to life. We ensure that whatever the building, its design is outstanding, and its operations meet the needs of the communities it serves.
We are as committed to providing an environment where everyone can realise their unique potential. So, in joining Hoare Lea, you will experience a business that enriches your knowledge, supports your wellbeing, and welcomes your individuality. You'll have the opportunity to participate in our 9-day fortnight scheme, thriving community groups, varied social and networking events, and extensive professional and technical development schemes. We also offer an extensive benefits package, including private medical cover, an electric vehicle salary sacrifice scheme, stock options, and 25 days of annual leave (increasing with service), alongside flexible and hybrid working.
Whatever your ambitions or circumstances, our aim is to enable everyone to develop their knowledge, give their best, and enjoy what they do.
Digital Solutions Group
Hoare Lea's Digital Solutions Group works on unique and technically challenging projects across the UK and internationally. From concept through to commissioning, we deliver creative, high-quality and user-centred technology solutions that combine technical accuracy with innovative design.
Our team includes specialist engineers in ICT, Communications, Audiovisual, Cyber Security, BMS and Building Automation. We work collaboratively across disciplines to design connected buildings, improve user interfaces, and support effective system integration, technology procurement and optimisation through analytics.
Our wider team includes:
- ICT: Designing digital infrastructure, including passive infrastructure, active networks, Wi‑Fi and wide‑area network connectivity.
- Audiovisual: Creating immersive client experiences, from purpose‑built meeting rooms and LED walls to reception installations.
- Smart Functionality: Using sensors and connected systems to generate building insights, reduce carbon and operational costs, and improve tenant experiences.
- Working with landlords, developers and project teams, we create flexible and scalable ICT and technology solutions that support industry‑recognised certifications and help transform buildings into smart environments.
ICT Team
Central within IBG are engineers that focus on ICT, a well‑designed ICT is fundamental to the functionality of any building, and its value. A truly future‑proofed building needs a secure and flexible network environment - one that can dynamically evolve alongside the changing stakeholder needs and the adoption of new technologies.
Effective digital infrastructure ensures that all interconnected devices can communicate seamlessly across a building's estate and beyond. It can also extract data to both inform a building's performance and respond to user needs.
Working with landlords, developers, and project teams, we create flexible and expandable ICT solutions that achieve industry‑recognised certifications and transform a structure into an intelligent building.
We actively work within BIM, using tools such as BIM 360, where we model ICT equipment in 3D. This requirement continues to grow within our exciting sector.
User roles, leveraging use cases upon big data made available by the digital transformation of buildings, and provide user experience on this data through various user interfaces (UI's). Within the IBMS team, we design technical solutions to consume and normalise data into a "big data" platform, apply metadata to enrich the data sets, and design the leverage of use cases from upon this common normalised data set around building user, FM, and analytic "data mining" roles.
